		<description>I found that there are other factors that may also contribute to additional remodeling costs. While a very detailed contractor&#039;s bid is very important, there may always be unexpected issues that arise during construction and which no one could foresee, but also many homeowners start making changes after a contract has been signed. These new &quot;change orders&quot; can get very expensive. Be sure to ask your contractor what his charges might be for  &quot;change orders&quot;.
